Sulphur. Pale straw. Little fruit except tart lime/lemon zest. Steely minerality. Petrol/kerosine. Bond dry. Explosive / extremely prickly salty acidity. Very salty and saline and energetic on the palate. Tannic and powerful. — 8 months ago

Celebrating with a couple of fun wines tonight. 2 hour decant(lots of chunky/fine sediment). A marvelous dark garnet with bricking. On the nose: expressive notes of red fruit, dusty soil, vanilla oak, mint, damp leaves. Taste: a velvety mouth coating, soft, concentrated wine with black cherry, sweet spice, cinnamon, tar, and a cedar/dark chocolate long finish. YUM and YUM again!...wish I had more bottles — 7 months ago
The Mascot is made from the young vines of Harlan, Promitory and Bond and you can really taste the royal pedigree here. Still in the fruit/primary phase with drying tannins. Very singular palate with a lot of concentration. Give these some additional cellar time to really shine. 95/96 potential — 6 months ago

Our first time at The Grill and exceeded expectations. The meal is excellent. As for the wine, perfect California Cabernet in the Bordeaux style. Big, smooth, super concentrated with “dark notes” (whatever that means!).
Totally delicious! — 4 days ago
